Verdict
Dubai Celebration finally returned to winning ways at Musselburgh last time and is still well handicapped on his best form despite a 4lb rise. Ryedale Dancer has been in fine form over 7f at this track and went close off today's mark last Monday but INGLEBY ANGEL is just preferred. He scored in better company at Thirsk last month and the three-year-old is less exposed than the most of these. Seldom and Talent Scout could both figure if on a going day and Whatsofunny has scope for improvement.
